Over the past 40 years, 600,000 people have left Detroit. Half of the homes and businesses are vacant. Attempts to deal with the blight, the city began an aggressive plan to tear down 400 buildings each week. Early on, this was done by shoving the house into the basement and covering it up. Termites loved this and grew in numbers. After consuming a few houses, the insects turned on the remaining, occupied, homes. Now, the homes are hauled to landfill and soil is dumped into the remaining hole.
New home construction, by a contractor familiar with termite protection, should solve any concerns.
